The literature on Triassic, Jurassic and earliest Cretaceous dinoflagellate cysts: supplement 3

Since the production of three literature compilations in 2012, 2013 and 2014, 266 further published contributions on Triassic, Jurassic and earliest Cretaceous (Berriasian) dinoflagellate cysts were issued between April 2014 and January 2018, or have been discovered. These 266 items are listed alphabetically herein with full details, including digital object identifier (doi) numbers where applicable. A full description of each publication as a string of keywords is given. These studies are placed in one or more of 14 global regions, and the most significant contributions are reviewed for all these areas except Central America. The region with the most studies is West Europe (37.2%), but sub-Arctic Russia (10.5%), the Arctic region (10.2%), East Europe (7.1%) and sub-Arctic North America (4.1%) are also well represented. The proportions of these publications over the Triassic, Early Jurassic, Middle Jurassic, Late Jurassic and Jurassic–Cretaceous transition intervals are relatively similar. However, the Middle Jurassic is best represented, and the Triassic has the smallest number of contributions
